We are excited to announce that Kornetti and Krafft, experts in the realm of therapy, are presenting a 3-part series of webinars with Georgia Association for Home Health Agencies, Inc. on an area of great need in the home care area: Maintenance Therapy.

Much discussion and interest has been generated since the Jimmo v Sebelius ruling, but the issue of maintenance therapy was a component of the Medicare Part A Home Health Benefit long before that court case. Currently, many home health agencies, as well as their therapy staff, have limited or no experience in addressing the issue of maintenance therapy.

Kornetti & Krafft Health Care Solutions frequently receive questions and concerns about maintenance therapy in the home health setting, particularly on issues like

proper beneficiary identification

supportive documentation

therapy utilization

billing procedures.

Getting this information right is critical for any organization to ensure that the revenue generated by this arm of the home health benefit is soundly protected in the audit-intensive environment in the industry.

This webinar series will provide the attendee/participant with clear and concise information about the do’s & don’ts of home health maintenance therapy. Presentation and discussion will include guidelines for therapy documentation, utilization, proper billing codes, and patient scenarios.
